20130147834 | MAGNIFYING TOOL FOR VIEWING AND INTERACTING WITH DATA VISUALIZATION ON MOBILE DEVICES - In accordance with various embodiments, a magnifying tool is provided in a user interface for magnifying content displayed on a mobile device and any other device with a restricted or limited viewing screen. A mobile device, including a magnifying tool for magnifying content displayed on the mobile device, can comprise a computer readable storage medium and processor. The mobile device can include a touchscreen operable to receive input from a user and display content. When the mobile device receives a selection of a location on the touchscreen, the mobile device determines a position of the location on the screen, determines a portion of the screen to magnify, and magnifies the portion of the screen and overlays the magnified portion on the screen. | 06-13-2013 |
20130187923 | LEGEND INDICATOR FOR SELECTING AN ACTIVE GRAPH SERIES - Various arrangements for identifying and selected a data value of a dataset presented on a graph are described. The graph may be presented, wherein the graph illustrates a plurality of datasets and a legend that identifies each of the plurality of datasets. A selection of the dataset may be received via the legend of the graph. An input of a point on the graph may be received. A value of a data point from the dataset that corresponds to the input of the point on the graph may be presented. | 07-25-2013 |
20130187948 | 2D LINE DATA CURSOR - Various arrangements for displaying a value of a data point on a graph are presented. The graph that illustrates a plurality of datasets may be presented. Input may be received from a user that indicates a point on the graph. Along a line parallel to an axis that extends through the point on the graph indicated by the user input, a dataset from the plurality of datasets may be identified. The value for the data point of the dataset that corresponds to an intersection of the line parallel to the axis and the visual representation of the dataset may be determined. The value for the data point may be displayed. | 07-25-2013 |
20150029215 | INTERACTIVE INTERSECTION AREAS - A system that generates interactive intersection areas receives a graphic diagram that includes a plurality of intersecting shapes and intersection areas. The system then creates or receives a definition for each of the shapes and determines a number of possible intersection areas for the diagram. The system defines a clipping path for each possible intersection area and defines a mask for each possible intersection area. The system then draws each intersection area using the defined clipping paths and masks | 01-29-2015 |
20150077433 | ALGORITHM FOR IMPROVED ZOOMING IN DATA VISUALIZATION COMPONENTS - Example embodiments reduce the processing required to zoom on graphical data visualizations by transforming only graphic elements visible in the zooming viewport. In one example embodiment, a grid overlays the component image. Prior to zooming, grid elements covered by the zooming viewport are determined and only graphic objects bounded by those grid elements are transformed during zooming. | 03-19-2015 |
20150084961 | MAP PERFORMANCE BY DYNAMICALLY REDUCING MAP DETAIL - Example embodiments dynamically generate lower resolution maps from high precision vector for use on desktops. Lower resolution maps are dynamically generated on the client side by decreasing coordinate and path precision. | 03-26-2015 |
20150161805 | Methods and Systems for Transitioning Between Arbitrary Shapes - Various arrangements for transitioning between data visualizations are presented. A first and second general path may be determined that define a first and second shape, respectively. A plurality of pairs of drawing commands may be created such that each pair of the plurality of pairs of drawing commands includes a first drawing command from the first general path and a second drawing command from the second general path. The plurality of pairs of drawing commands may be modified such that each pair of the plurality of pairs of drawing commands includes a single type of drawing command. A visual transition may be output for presentation between the first shape and the second shape using the modified plurality of pairs of drawing commands. | 06-11-2015 |
20150355817 | ENHANCED VISUAL NAVIGATION BREADCRUMBS - A system that provides visual components generates a first display of selectable and hierarchical visual components, where each visual component has at least one associated attribute. The system receives a selection of one of the visual components and displays a second display of visual components at a next hierarchical level of the selected visual component. The system then generates and displays breadcrumbs that include a navigation path from the first display to the second display, and include the associated attribute for the selected visual component. | 12-10-2015 |
